TURKEY AND SPINACH CURRY

With the coconut milk, the preroasted turkey and the fresh spinach, there's plenty of flavor in this little stew. Plenty of ease, too; the whole thing (including the rice you probably want to serve it with, though I could imagine it over leftover stuffing) takes less than a half hour, not much longer than sandwiches.

Categories     Main Dish Catfish

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds catfish fillets
4 cups water
2 medium onions, finely chopped
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons curry powder
2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
4 cups hot cooked rice

Steps:

  • Rinse fillets under cold water and cut into 2-inch pieces.
  • Place catfish into a medium saucepan and add water, onions, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer until fish is tender but not breaking apart, about 8 minutes. Transfer fish to a serving platter using a slotted spoon and cover with foil to keep warm.
  • Bring the cooking liquid in the saucepan to a boil; continue to boil until it reduces to 1 cup, then keep warm over low heat.
  • Combine flour, curry, and butter in a small bowl. Mix with a fork or fingertips to form a smooth paste. Roll teaspoon-sized bits of paste into balls.
  • Return the cooking liquid to a simmer. While stirring slowly and continuously, drop the balls into the liquid one at a time, letting each one dissolve before adding the next. Cook until the sauce returns just to a boil and thickens to the consistency of gravy, about 5 minutes. Check the seasoning.
  • Pour the gravy over the fish and boiled rice, sprinkle some parsley on top, and serve hot.

Tips:

  • Choose lean ground turkey: This will help reduce the fat content in the dish.
  • Use fresh, flavorful spinach: Wilted or yellowed spinach will not taste as good.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too much spinach at once, it will not cook evenly.
  • Use a variety of spices: This will add depth of flavor to the dish.
  • Simmer for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Rice, quinoa, or naan bread are all great options.

Conclusion:

Ground turkey and spinach curry is a healthy, flavorful, and easy-to-make dish. It's a great way to use up leftover turkey and it's also a good source of protein, iron, and calcium. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, making it a versatile meal option. Give it a try the next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal.
